NOTES: to those of you coming from the Big Lead (via Deadspin or not), NHL fanhouse, or Offwing, Dater's full post is available here. Unfortunately his follow-up blog post was lost, but has responded to Jibblescribbits' friend Dear Lord Stanley as well

Normally I'm not a fan of Mark Kiszla of the Denver Post. Sometimes I think he has trouble finding a topic to write about so he uses "The Shaugnessy Trick" of digging up dirt where it doesn't really have any and being overly negative.

And here’s my answer to my still respected friend, that I should have said right away: hell yes, I’m glad I’m not some ESPN stooge, who might make more money than me, but spends his/her entire day preening around the athletic arena, microphone in hand, makeup case in hand, hair spray in hand, ready to ask an inane, suckup, kiss-butt question to a player that, at the end of the day, at the end of this life, at the end of this universe, HAS ABSOLUTELY NO RESONATING IMPACT ON THE MEMORIES OF ITS VIEWING AUDIENCE, AND ABSOLUTELY NO LASTING IMPACT ON ANYTHING REMOTELY ASSOCIATED WITH THE ART CALLED “JOURNALISM” WHICH YOU FALSELY ATTACH YOURSELVES TO.”

So if you don't hear from Adrian Dater for a while, well I think we all know what happened to him.... oh and Amen Mr. Dater, Amen.
